On the phone with the courier company that has not delivered one of my items (and can't seem to locate it - on hold (of course) and listening to 'a recorded message of - "how they expedite the freight, and deliver in bulk Austalia wide, deliver for the Armed Forces and that if you need something to arrive the next day and on time you can count on us. Household lots, pallets, call us and we will get it there hassle free' - YET THEY LOST MY ONE PARCEL! Just play music guy's, seriously X-(

Try click and send boxes. If they fit in a Bx4, you're only looking at $3 something for the box and $13 odd for postage.

That may be a good thing. :^O It was just an intentionally grating song that features a mock voice recording of an automated call centre. Here, for your enjoyment - since you missed out - is a small portion of the 'lyrics' which are spoken to a sledge-hammering noise background for about 7 minutes. 😉
